Translation of the song lyrics Companera - Arsen Dedic

Companera (original)

Znao sam da s tobom živim
Bolji dio svog života,
Al' me uvijek nešto skrene,
Al' me uvijek nešto smota.
Zvalo me je nešto drugo,
Iza zida, iza plota,
Teška mi je tvoja ljubav,
Gnjavila me ta dobrota,
Ta dobrota.
Morat ću sam iz slijepe ulice,
Companera, companera, companera,
Prijateljice.
Završni čin, lampion, pahuljice,
Companera, companera, mi companera,
Prijateljice.
Imala si sve što vole,
Zajednica, crkva, škola,
Željela si da me braniš
Od života, zla i bola.
Tonuo je brod uz glazbu,
U magli je zvono tuklo,
Mogao sam da se spasim,
Al' me nešto na dno vuklo,
Na dno vuklo.
Morat ću sam iz slijepe ulice,
Companera, companera, mi companera,
Prijateljice.
Završni čin, lampion, pahuljice,
Companera, companera, mi companera,
Prijateljice.

(translation)

I knew I lived with you
A better part of your life,
But something always turns me on,
But something always bothers me.
Something else called me,
Behind the wall, behind the fence,
Your love is hard on me,
I was bothered by that kindness,
That kindness.
I'll have to get out of the dead end,
Companera, companera, companera,
Girlfriends.
Final act, lantern, snowflakes,
Companera, companera, mi companera,
Girlfriends.
You had everything they love,
Community, church, school,
You wanted to defend me
From life, evil and pain.
The ship sank to the music,
In the fog the bell rang,
I could have saved myself,
But something dragged me to the bottom,
It dragged me to the bottom.
I'll have to get out of the dead end,
Companera, companera, mi companera,
Girlfriends.
Final act, lantern, snowflakes,
Companera, companera, mi companera,
Girlfriends.
